我拥有的第一个控制台是PlayStation。 从那时起,我几乎拥有了Sony发行的所有游戏机,甚至不幸的PSP Go。 但是随着年龄的增长,智慧不断涌现,现在是时候接受这一点了,在当前的游戏机一代中,Xbox可以提供更多的功能。

 

Xbox Game Pass是一种Netflix风格的目录,在澳大利亚没有等效的PlayStation。 它允许Xbox One和PC播放器按月订阅下载一系列游戏。 捆绑的PC,Xbox One和Xbox Live Gold交易价格在$ 10.95到$ 15.95之间。 该库包含大约250种不同类型的游戏,包括独立游戏和AAA游戏。 当它们来来去去时,总会有大量的可用标题。

 

在某些情况下,Game Pass订户甚至可以在服务上访问全新的AAA标题,例如The Outer Worlds。对于新用户,这意味着他们可以以1美元而不是69美元的价格玩游戏。

 

每个月,Xbox One和PC都会在该服务上发布新游戏。本月初,随着德军总部最近加入的《德军总部:Youngblood》和《最终幻想XV》的加入,玩家可以进入《王国之心3》,《雅库扎0》和《两点医院》。这真是物超所值,特别是当一个月的费用与一顿午餐大致相同时。它比Netflix高出一美元,而且大多数游戏都提供这种服务,并且该服务上的许多游戏都可以自己提供200多个小时的娱乐时间。

 

作为一个没有Xbox的人,在尝试跌跌撞撞之前,他是一个牺牲品。但是按成本计算,购买Xbox One才有意义。当我第一次启动Game Pass并下载了所有我想玩的游戏时,总共有61个。与控制台本身相比,我受控制台大小的限制更大。

 

假设游戏的平均费用约为40美元。单独购买所有这些游戏将花费超过$ 2,440。即使花了那么多钱,我也永远也不会玩。我的耻辱堆在这个阶段是传奇的。

 

该服务也非常适合发现新游戏。我年龄越大,我的时间就越少。这意味着我需要对自己的比赛有所判断。有时候,这意味着我想念独立的宝石。值得庆幸的是,该服务上有许多名副其实的独立开发者,其中包括许多伟大的澳大利亚人,例如《无题的鹅游戏》和《死亡平方》。这意味着人们更有可能尝试原本不会购买的游戏。

 

Xbox Game Pass具有更大的讽刺意味,它对澳大利亚游戏玩家来说是一项诱人的服务,那就是PlayStation首先做到了,而且可以说做得更好。 PlayStation Now是一项游戏流媒体服务,于2014年在美国首次推出。2015年,该产品在英国,更广泛的欧洲和日本推出。

 

但是六年后,它仍然没有在澳大利亚推出。

 

PlayStation Now现在包含来自三个PlayStation控制台世代(Playstation 2、3和4)的700多种游戏。重要的是,PlayStation 4游戏可以在线播放或下载,就像Xbox Game Pass提供的服务一样。虽然价格略高一些,为9.99美元(15.10美元),但它提供的范围更广,功能比Xbox的流媒体服务更多。

 

尽管没有正式的理由说明它未能在澳大利亚推出,但该决定可能是由于我们的互联网速度较差以及缺乏本地基础设施所致。 2019年,澳大利亚的互联网速度在全球排名第68位,远低于全球平均水平。尽管PlayStation确实在阿德莱德拥有一个数据中心,但澳大利亚互联网普遍存在的困难以及我们人口密度较低,这使得Sony难以证明在本地建立更多的中心是合理的,这将使PlayStation Now在这里更具可行性。

 

也就是说,索尼在2018年为互联网速度较慢的用户增加了下载功能。这也是Xbox Game Pass在本地提供游戏的方式。尽管如此,关于在澳大利亚推出该服务的声音仍然很少。

 

在2019年12月,有传闻称PlayStation Now即将在广告出现并从PlayStation Store中删除后才真正来到澳大利亚。从那以后,没有人再说了。同时,Xbox Game Pass巧妙地填补了PlayStation Now留下的空白。

 

随着诸如Google Stadia和GeForce Now之类的服务的推出(澳大利亚都尚未提供),流媒体正在逐渐成为一种规范。随着生活成本的提高和人们寻求更加经济上可持续的游戏方式,订阅模式比以往任何时候都更加受欢迎。

 

Xbox Game Pass是Xbox上的一项必不可少的服务-对于大多数用户来说,它已捆绑在其Xbox Live订阅的价格中-并且是澳大利亚为数不多的领先流媒体收费服务之一。澳大利亚的PlayStation Now感觉像是在做白日梦,即使传言成真,也为时已晚。 Xbox已经赢得了早期的流媒体战争,我们只能希望,随着下一代游戏机的推出,索尼将在澳大利亚提供更具竞争力的产品。

Sony Can't Compete With Xbox Game Pass

 

The first console I owned was a PlayStation. Since then I've owned nearly every console Sony's released — even the unfortunate PSP Go. But with age comes wisdom, and it's time to accept that in the current console generation, Xbox just has a lot more to offer.

 

Xbox Game Pass is a Netflix-style catalogue with no PlayStation equivalent in Australia. It allows Xbox One and PC players to download a range of games on a monthly subscription basis. It costs between $10.95 and $15.95 for a bundled PC, Xbox One and Xbox Live Gold deal. The library contains around 250 games from a range of genres including indie titles and AAA games. While they come and go, there's always a solid line-up of titles available.

 

In some cases, Game Pass subscribers are even able to access brand new AAA titles on the service like The Outer Worlds, which was available at launch. For new subscribers, this meant they could play the game for $1, instead of $69.

 

Every month new titles are released onto the service for both Xbox One and PC. This month, players are able to access Kingdom Hearts 3, Yakuza 0 and Two Point Hospital, following the recent additions of Wolfenstein: Youngblood and Final Fantasy XV earlier this month. That's whopping good value, particularly when one month costs about the same as a single lunch. It's a dollar more than Netflix, and most of the games offer does and many of the games on the service offer 200+ hours of entertainment on their own.

 

As someone who hadn't owned an Xbox before it felt sacrilegious to take the plunge. But on a cost-by-cost basis, purchasing an Xbox One just made sense. When I first booted up Game Pass and downloaded all the games I wanted to play, there were 61 in total. I was limited more by the size of the console than the line-up itself.

 

Let's say that games cost around $40 on average. Buying all of these games individually would have cost over $2,440. I'd have never gotten around to playing them even after spending that much. My shame pile is legendary at this stage.

 

The service is also great for discovering new games. The older I get, the less time I have. That means I need to be judicious in what I play. Sometimes it means I miss indie gems. Thankfully there's a veritable treasure trove of indies available on the service, including a bunch of great Aussie ones like Untitled Goose Game and Death Squared. It means that people are more likely to try a game that they wouldn't otherwise buy.

 

One of the bigger ironies of Xbox Game Pass being such an enticing service for Aussie gamers is that PlayStation did it first and arguably better. PlayStation Now is a game streaming service that first launched in the U.S. in 2014. It rolled out in the UK, wider Europe and Japan in 2015.

 

But six years later, it still hasn't launched in Australia.

 

PlayStation Now contains over 700 games from across three PlayStation console generations (Playstation 2, 3 and 4). Importantly, PlayStation 4 games are available to stream online or to download much like the service offered by Xbox Game Pass. While marginally more expensive at $US9.99 ($15.10) it offers a wider range and more features than Xbox's streaming service.

 

While no official reason was given for its failure to launch in Australia, the decision was likely due to our poor internet speeds and a lack of local infrastructure. In 2019, Australia was ranked 68th in the world for internet speeds, far below the global average. And while PlayStation does have a data centre in Adelaide, the difficulties around Australia's internet generally and our lower population density make it hard for Sony to justify spinning up more centres locally, which would make PlayStation Now more viable here.

 

That said, Sony added a download feature in 2018 for users with slower internet. This is also how games are offered by Xbox Game Pass locally. Still, there are still few noises about the service launching in Australia.

 

In December 2019, rumours began that PlayStation Now would actually be coming to Australia after an ad appeared and was removed from the PlayStation Store. Since then, no further word has been given. In the meantime, Xbox Game Pass has neatly filled the void that PlayStation Now left.

 

With the launch of services like Google Stadia and GeForce Now (neither available in Australia yet), streaming is slowly becoming the norm. The subscription model is more popular than ever as the cost of living rises and people look for more financially sustainable ways to game.

 

Xbox Game Pass is an essential service on Xbox - for most users it's bundled into the price of their Xbox Live subscription - and its one of the few leading the streaming charge in Australia. PlayStation Now in Australia feels like a pipe dream, and even if rumours pan out to be true, it feels too late. Xbox has already won the early streaming wars, and we can only hope that with the launch of the next generation, Sony will have a more competitive offering in Australia.
